  <p><strong>Editing Your Trippin Out Profile:</strong>&nbsp;On the application's top right you'll find your profile editing tool. In it you can change your birthday, spoken languages &amp; about me sections.</p>
  <p><strong>Attraction View vs. Sticky Notes View:</strong>&nbsp;In the mid-top of the screen you can toggle between "Attraction View" which in it you can do all of your trip plannings and searches, and "Sticky Notes View" which in it you can search for trip companions and post notes in different places to help you find companions.</p>
  <p><strong>Features in Attraction View:</strong></p>
  <ul>
    <li><strong>Creating a trip:</strong>&nbsp;Using the "create new trip" button right beneath the map, you can create your desired trip. First, give the trip any name you'd like. Later, you need to pick "add specific dates" and just pick your trip's dates. Then "submit" - and ta-da! A new empty schedule table will now appear...</li>
    <li><strong>You can always share</strong>&nbsp;new trips with your friends on Facebook - a popup would appear prompting you whether you want to share this trip on your wall.</li>
    <li><strong>The trip's table:</strong>&nbsp;The table is consisted of a left column - representing what we refer to as "unschedule attractions" - these are attractions you have expressed your interest in, but you don't have an exact date for. You can use this column to put all of the attractions you like in a certain place and later you can assign dates to them. You can also plan a trip more freely that way. The other columns on the right are representing the different dates, in which you chose to travel in.</li>
    <li><strong>Searching for new places to travel to:</strong>&nbsp;Once you have your trip's details all set, you probably want to find attractions to add to your trip. This could be easily done by simply searching for a town or a country in the search box, for example: Rome, Italy. Once you submit your search, the map will take you there and would mark all the attractions that can be found in the spot that you've searched for. On your left you'll get a list of all those attractions.</li>
    <li><strong>Viewing &amp; Attending attractions:</strong>&nbsp;You can view the attractions by picking an attraction from the left menu bar, in the "search results" tab. In the left bar you can see a short description for each attraction, the attraction's rating, and a sample of other visitors to this attraction. By clicking "show more details" you'll find a more expanded view of the attraction with more details on the attraction itself and on the people who are attending this attraction.&nbsp;<strong>You can attend</strong>&nbsp;the attraction by clicking "attend" and you can then choose dates&amp;time and then attraction would be added to the suitable date, or you can attend without picking a date and this would create an "unscheduled attraction". Note that each attraction has a recommended duration time, and attraction would be added respectively.</li>
  </ul>
  After attending an attraction you'll be given the option to share this action on your Facebook wall.
  <ul>
    <li><strong>Creating new attractions:</strong>&nbsp;Couldn't find an attraction you know exists? Visited a really cool place that doesn't exist in our application? Trippin Out basically lives on users' input - this is done first and foremost by giving you the option to create your own attractions. To do this, simply go on the map to the spot where the attraction is located - and click that "attractionless" spot on the map. A "create an attraction" form would pop up, and there you can fill in all the details. Note that fields marked with a star are mandatory.</li>
  </ul>
  The more your attraction would be informative - the more it would contribute to other people and to this "open-house" project, to provide a great and free experience to users.
  <ul>
    <li><strong>Rate attractions:</strong>&nbsp;You can rate each attraction, but you can only increase or decrease the rating score by 1.</li>
    <li><strong>Show Trip on Map:</strong>&nbsp;Clicking on this button (located underneath the map), you'll get a nice view of your trip.</li>
  </ul>
  <p><strong>Notifications: On the left menu bar, in the notifications tab, you can find 3 important features...</strong></p>
  <ul>
    <li><strong>Shared Trips:</strong>&nbsp;Each trip you plan - you can share with other Trippin Out users. You can click on the "Share Trip with Friends" button, and a list of your Trippin Out buddies would popup and you can select the people you want to share your trip with.</li>
  </ul>
  On the other side, when you receive a share request - it would appear on the notifications tab. You can accept this request, and then you'll find the new trip on your "My Trips" tab.
  <ul>
    <li><strong>Attractions I May Like:</strong>&nbsp;In this section we would automatically suggest to you of attractions that nearby you and are of types that could interest you.</li>
    <li><strong>People Near Me:</strong>&nbsp;This option would show you who's travelling around places that you've attended.</li>
  </ul>
  <p><strong>Features in Sticky Notes View:</strong></p>
  <ul>
    <li><strong>Searching</strong>&nbsp;in this view, instead of attractions, would show you notes that people have posted on the map. You can go over the posts of different people on the left bar and interact &amp; see their profile.</li>
    <li><strong>Creating a post:</strong>&nbsp;You can easily create a sticky note by clicking the map, while in Sticky Note View. A new form would popup and all you need to do now is write whatever you want.</li>
  </ul>
